|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Darius | Very Hard | 534 | 52% | -80 | -237 | A popular skill matchup. Getting to level 2 first is crucial to winning the lane. If he starts Q, you can start E and try to dodge it. If he starts W, you can start W and trade aggressively. If he has 3 bleed stacks, back off immediately. Dodge his Q by walking into his inner circle or grabbing him with E. Your best trading pattern is E > AA > AA > QQ. At level 6, you both have insane kill pressure. When he is 60% HP, you can go for an all-in with E > AA > QQ > Ignite > R. In teamfights, R him to peel for your ADC or throw him into his own team. | |
Skill Priority Q Knuckle Down Sett's next two attacks deal additional damage based off of the target's max health. Sett also gains Move Speed while moving towards enemy champions.  W Haymaker Sett passively stores damage he takes as Grit. On cast, Sett expends all stored Grit to gain a shield and punch an area, dealing true damage in the center and physical damage on the sides.  E Facebreaker Sett pulls in all enemies on opposite sides of him, dealing damage and stunning them. If enemies were only on one side, they are slowed instead of stunned. 52.5% WR 516 Matches Summoner Spells  50.6% WR 261 Matches Skill OrderKnuckle Down Sett's next two attacks deal additional damage based off of the target's max health.

 Garen | Hard | 521 | 47% | +175 | -550 | You win early game but get outscaled later on in the isolated 1v1. However in teamfights you can just ult the garen into their team for an easy engage. You need to focus on fighting the garen strategically so you can look for a dive, all-in, or freeze in the early game. E start and zone him from the first wave melee xp. You can E into W to usually guarentee it hits. Don't get too greedy with your W shield since if he sliences you he can burst you with his ult. | |

 Renekton | Very Hard | 461 | 50% | -487 | -650 | This is a Renekton-favored matchup. The key is to survive his trades and play around his cooldowns. Start with W at level 1 and be aggressive since he has no fury. | |
 Aatrox | Very Hard | 449 | 45% | -224 | -334 | A skill matchup. Start with W at level 1 to tank his first and second Q, then use your own W to win the trade. Try to dodge his longest-range Q by sidestepping. Use your E to grab him during his second Q. Play aggressive, but avoid his Q sweet spots. Use Ghost for all-ins when he's around 60% HP. If he's ahead, bait his abilities under your tower. Do not fight him if the wave is pushing to you, as he can freeze it. In the mid-game, use Stridebreaker and Ghost to close the gap and burst him down. In teamfights, use R to isolate him from your carry and finish him with E-W. | |
 Jax | Even | 444 | 54% | -64 | -121 | This is a skill matchup. Punch him. Use your E to stun him when he uses his E, then get out of his E stun radius. Use your Q and auto-attacks to out-trade him. Jax isn't a threat without his E. Respect his level 6 and his ultimate's damage; only all-in him when he's around 60% HP, not full health. Getting Stridebreaker makes the lane much easier. Make sure you use minions to guarantee an E stun for a W true damage hit. If behind, just push waves under your tower and avoid bad trades. | |
 Ornn | Easy | 410 | 45% | +377 | +1,127 | ||
 Mordekaiser | Not Favored | 406 | 50% | -28 | +58 | This is a skill matchup. Fight inside your minion wave to reduce his Q damage. Be aggressive early and use E to punish his attempts to CS. Hold onto your W until you can land an E stun to guarantee the true damage. A crucial part of this matchup is using your R to become unstoppable and CANCEL HIS ULTIMATE. The timing is key—watch his hand animation and listen for the sound cue. Once you have this down, you can kill him inside his Death Realm. In teamfights, you can R him into his backline, but if he ults you, make sure to use your E before W to land the true damage. | |
